截至2025年10月12日,欧盟的入境/出境系统(EES)正在运行,要求英国前往申根地区的旅客在抵达时在边境检查站提供指纹和照片。 As of October 12, 2025, the EU’s Entry/Exit System (EES) is active, requiring UK travelers to the Schengen Area to provide fingerprints and a photo at border checkpoints upon arrival. 该系统取代护照印章,适用于所有29个申根国家,但不适用于爱尔兰或塞浦路斯。 The system, which replaces passport stamping, applies to all 29 Schengen countries but not to Ireland or Cyprus. 不需要任何旅行前步骤,这一进程是自由的。 No pre-travel steps are needed, and the process is free. 最初,每个国家只有一个边境点使用该系统,预计到2026年4月10日全面推出。 Initially, only one border point per country uses the system, with full rollout expected by April 10, 2026. EES服务站现已在诸如多佛、福克斯通的欧洲隧道和圣潘克拉斯等联合王国关键出发点投入使用。 EES kiosks are now operational at key UK departure points like Dover, Folkestone’s Eurotunnel, and St. Pancras. 旅行者应期待等待时间更长,专家提出最多4小时的处理建议。 Travelers should expect longer wait times, with experts advising up to four hours for processing. 该系统旨在改善边境安全和跟踪逾期停留情况。 The system aims to improve border security and track overstays.
